Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 minutes or until grains are tender.

Lightly coat the lamb fillets in 2 tablespoons oil; season well with salt and freshly ground pepper.
Heat chargrill pan over high heat then cook lamb for 6 minutes turning or until cooked to your liking.

Meanwhile, whisk remaining oil and lime juice until combined, then add to the quinoa and toss to coat.
Add remaining ingredients to bowl and toss well to combine.
